Sure, your dog is a good dog, but is she a popular one?
Statistically speaking, Denverite can answer that. Data from the Denver Animal Shelter confirms that yes, there are a lot of dogs here. 22,860 licensed since 2015 alone.

Areas with three question marks didn’t have a most popular name. That happened most frequently because those zip codes had very few dogs, either because the zip code is only partly in Denver or very small.
Finally, in a great act of life imitating art, there is only one dog in Denver named Bill Murray. I hear he’s great at parties.
